Summary

The Acute Carotid Sinus Endovascular Stimulation II (ACES II) Study is a multicenter, prospective, non-randomized study that is being conducted to evaluate the feasibility of endovascular stimulation of carotid sinus nerves via an electrophysiology (EP) catheter advanced into the internal jugular vein (IJV). The current study investigates the hypothesis that intraoperative electrical stimulation of the carotid sinus from the IJV will result in an acute and dose-dependent reduction in blood pressure and heart rate.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Baroreceptor Stimulation

The stimulation catheter may be placed in different locations within the IJV at the level of the cervical spine vertebrae. Stimulation amplitudes will be varied from 0.1 mA to 20 mA.
